Black Thumbnail

My cold, cold sailor heart, says: Get on your way!

I ain't too proud to say, but that's how I'm made

I'll be that person 'til my dying day

I try so awful hard, but I can't change

From runways to the road, I ramble alone

This thumbnail size of heart is as black as coal

Though beauty it still brings me to my knees

Don't waste a tear on me, it's my disease

Don't leave no smell on me

Don't leave no smell on me

I'll blow off in your sleep

Don't leave no smell on me

Those preppy boys in blue, they're makin' fun of us

So we take it to the street, because we're an ornery curse

But we're not here to make your children bleed

We're here to come ground with the tumbleweed

Don't leave no smell on me

Don't leave no smell on me

I'll blow off in your sleep

Don't leave no smell on me

(Now guitar, go get her!)

Don't take these boots off me when you think I'm dead

I'll still be running from the demon in my head

I'll be that person 'til my dying day

I try so awful hard, but I can't change

Don't leave no smell on me

Don't leave no smell on me

I'll blow off in your sleep

Don't leave no smell on me

(Don't leave now, go get her!)
